About
Our Foundation

The Laken Hope Foundation supports existing organizations that promote safety awareness for women, aid and tuition assistance for nursing students, and children's healthcare. These were all causes that Laken felt strongly about and she held near and dear to her heart. Laken Riley was a student at Augusta University after attending UGA, where she was studying to become a nurse. Laken was a wonderful friend, sister, daughter, and faithful follower of Christ; who touched the lives of everyone around her. Her infectious smile and contagious laugh lit up every room she entered. She was a sweet and compassionate soul whose life was sadly cut short on Thursday, February 22, 2024. Laken's untimely death was both avoidable and tragic. Our ultimate goal is to promote safety awareness and prepare women in the event they are ever in danger. Thank you for everyone's continued love and support. "Together we can all Keep Hope Alive"!
